Had this problem failed to be fixed multiple times in the car listed above. Finally had ECM replaced and have driven 300 plus miles with no problem. Prior efforts included: ignition coils (3), total tune-up, replaced Mass Air Flow Sensor. Final report ECM showing not grounding properly to injectors #2 and #6.

Good evening,

Do you have a continuing issue?

If so, what is the current issue?

No, thankfully seems it is fixed. I have driven it over two weeks and 350 miles. However, the last time I got it from Ford dealership, it was fine for about 400 miles and without warning, the check engine light began flashing again. Hopefully the new ECM took care of the situation.
